Dos and Don’ts for students attending online classes.

Before the start of the class:

  • Kindly read the online classroom (decorum) expectations as framed and posted by the teacher in the google classroom and adhere to the same on a daily basis.
  • Login on time for your class.
  • Make sure you have a good internet connection that supports turning on of your video while you are attending class. Request your parents to make arrangements for the same if not currently available.
  • Keep all the books and stationery required for the classes handy.
  • Keep the device (laptop/iphone/android device/ipad, etc) adequately charged before the start of the class, so that your class is not disrupted due to power cuts.

During Class

  • Repeat the Vaels Affirmation after your teacher before the start of every class.
  • Turn on your video and greet your teacher at the start of the class.
  • Join the class on time so that you do not miss out on any interesting/important part of the lesson or instruction.
  • Interact with the teacher as and when required of you.
  • Try and avoid leaving the classroom for any reason and stay on until the end of the class.
  • Use the short breaks between classes to have a short snack or use the restroom.
  • Complete any work assigned to you on time.
  • Sit in a well-lit and well-ventilated place so that you are comfortable and you can concentrate better.
  • You can choose to have a plain background or even blur it if you wish.
  • Take notes as and when required.
  • Wear comfortable and decent clothes. Long locks of hair need to be neatly tied up.
  • Clarify your doubts with your teachers without any hesitation. Raise your hand and wait for your turn to ask your question.
  • Do not engage in any unwarranted conversations in the chat box while the class is on. Only if the teacher permits, use the chat box.

After Class

  1. Do not absent yourself unnecessarily.
  2. Please keep the class teacher informed about any genuine reasons for absenteeism.
  3. No form of misbehavior will be entertained, especially do not leave the meeting when questioned by the teacher or called upon to participate in any discussion.
  4. Please seek help if you are not able to keep pace with the proceedings of the class for whatever reason.
  5. Do not panic in the event of some difficulty in accessing content in the classroom. Your teachers will help you out with it.
  6. Do not take too long to switch between classes.
  7. Complete and turn-in your assignment on time.

WISHING YOU ALL THE VERY BEST FOR A FULFILLING YEAR AHEAD.
